You know as well as I know that the style of dance that evolved from the "men's dance" of the southern plains has been slow to move. It's not something everyone has just freely shared with anyone.

Southern drums are hitting the northern dances more frequently nowadays. Don't be surprised if you begin to see more of these "split" dance categories.

What about points on Friday night? Can you still register for dance catergories and drum on Saturday?

[dancing bear]

ok.. well. heading up on friday.. so what is the word on the events for friday night?? any specials? a feed?? just wondering...

[3ndnbear]

I just got off the phone with Matt Dorsey (committee member)

POINTS START SATURDAY @ NOON- GRAND ENTRY

Friday night agenda:
Peanuts Lax exhibition game @ 6pm
Powwow Princess Crowning after the game
Iroquois Social Dancing after crowning 7:30ish....

you can only enter one contest... No smoke AND jingle, tradish, fancy & grass..One or the other.... but you can enter all the specials you can handle lol.... any other questions.. call 716-532-4900

o yeah, i almost forgot.. there is no Southern and Northern split in dance categories because they split age categories into JR and SR adults this year....

[native_flutterby]

from what i've heard, the camp grounds will be behind the fire hall about 10 minutes from the powwow arena!
im not 100% sure on that tho, Maybe someone from the pw committee can verify that~!

[seneca*one]

yes smokedancer....behind the firehall. if 'yall look on my first post about pow wow info..there's a link showing you where the campgrounds are.

weather forecast......it's gonna be a scorcher! gonna hit 90 tomorrow for grand entry. sunday it's supposed to rain. but it's all good cuz it's inside!

*i really do hope this is a good pow wow* it's a test run i guess. we'll see what happens and where it'll be next year!

Hope to see all new faces out here this weekend!

[Jinglemama07]

talked to my bro a while ago...said it was rainin so they moved it inside...was there any specials at this one?

[Jinglemama07]

heres the scoops:
we had 10 dancers in the senior mens catagory..
i was looking for a split song, but the MC did 2 northern songs one was a double step..
i didnt dance the sunday session..
im not too sure about salamance powwow next weekend.

[dancing bear]

Good to hear stoney creek in person for the first time.. good job guys.. and it's been quite a while since I heard white fish jrs.. wow.. was great to hear them too...
I think the powwow was good... was nice to have it inside where the weather didn't affect it at all... only thing I would add a couple of cents about was the sound system set up the way it was.. there was an echo at times and it was tough to start off right if u weren't directly between the two speaker stacks... other then that and having trains come by every hour or so all night long waking us up, I'd say it was a good powwow..

i agree with the sound system. As for the trains.....thats probably why they said to camp @ the firehall which is about ten min drive but it was quiet there.

This was a pretty nice pow wow! I liked the set up of having it inside the Gil Lay Arena! Good way to beat the heat from the fury of this summer's humidity!
